My first Portfolio Story, Bhagiratha's Resolve: The story of a man with impeccable willpower and earth-moving patience, and his journey to find peace for his ancestors.
The second story in my Portfolio is entitled Battle of Wills. In it, we delve deeper into the past of Viswamithra, the sage who taught Rama at the beginning of the Ramayana, as he attempts to send a selfish king to heaven before his time and prove once and for all he is a superior sage.
The third story has two parts. First is Arjuna's Gifts Part 1, where Arjuna receives a powerful gift from each of the Gods to use in his upcoming battle with Karna.
Next, a tale of three princely brothers who stumble upon a mischievous water sprite who asks each the same puzzling question: "What are Good Fairies Like?"
A wise king embarks upon a quest to carry a goblin across a graveyard for a mysterious monk. Along the way he is forced to answer the goblin's riddles. Will the king come up with all the right answers and keep his head? Or will the goblin manage to trick him? Is there some nefarious plot behind the king's quest? Find out all that and more in the two-part Riddles of the Goblin King!
Finally, the capping stone to my portfolio, The Gods of India and the World Today, where all the gods we've learned about this semester meet across a round table to discuss what should be done about the current state of the world.
